Ideas & Proposals
Topics for international collaboration welcome!If you have a suggestion for an international collaborative project of the IEA Heat Pump Programme, please contact the Heat Pump Centre. The Programme aims to increase the number of collaborative projects and your suggestions are therefore very welcome.
Anyone working in the heat pumping field who has an interest to join a project, please contact the person(s) listed in the table below or the Heat Pump Centre.
A number of areas of interest for future IEA HPP Annexes (projects) has also been identified. If you are interested in any of the ideas or have other ideas, please contact the person(s) listed in the table below, your ExCo delegate or the Heat Pump Centre.
The following ideas/proposals are of interest to the Heat Pump Programme and could be developed to a project:
|
Improving low ambient temperature performance of Air-Source Heat Pumps
The main technical objective is to identify technical solutions that can lead to improved ASHPs with a heating SPF ≥ 2.63 W/W, the minimum level necessary in order to gain recognition as a renewable technology in the EU.

Heat pump concepts for NZEB - continuation of annex 32
Objectives:
- Proof of concepts for buildings in order to reach Nearly Zero Energy consumption applying heat pumps as core component of the building technology
- Evaluation of building- and system integration options favorable for the application in Nearly Zero Energy Buildings
- Requirements for further developments of current marketable heat pumps to exploit specific performance opportunities in Nearly Zero Energy Buildings (e.g. multi-source ability, capacity range, capacity control, temperature lift)

Fuel-driven heat pumps
Goals:
- easy and sustainable market entrance and deployment
- identify market barriers and opportunities
- identify the potential markets and importance in future energy systems
- identify market supporting measures
Means:
- Field test of different fuel driven heat pumps
- compare different system configurations e.g. different sources
- evaluate different technologies for different applications e.g. retrofit versus new buildings
- classification of system schemes, generic system layout
- potential study, roadmap
